Pizza Sauce = 8 oz tom. sauce + 1-2 cloves pressed garlic + 1 TB each of basil & oregano. Combine and microwave, loosely covered, for 2 minutes. Stir sauce, then spread evenly over crust.

Finely dice baby spinach and sprinkle evenly over sauce. (I use Pampered Chef's Manual Food Processor for dicing.)

Add whatever fresh veggies and seasonings you prefer. These are my favorites.

I dice the zuke, mushroom, and onion first; spread over spinach layer... then layer sliced tomato, then diced red pepper. The order doesn't matter, I just like how the pizza looks this way.

Since cheese is a disaster (health wise & environmentally), use nutritional yeast instead. Optionally, grate a FEW raw cashews, too.

Sprinkle nutritional yeast over top of your veggies, then grate raw cashews last. (I used FOUR cashews; a little goes a long way; these are high fat, so go easy.) Bake at 400 degrees for 18-22 min.

Serve with additional pizza sauce for dipping the crusts, if desired. Vary your veggies, or use basil pesto sauce (oil and dairy-free) for a whole different saucy flavor.
